Chapter 154. Head Professor vs Head Professor (5)
‘…That’s the problem?’
The Imperial Princess looked at Ruin with a dumbfounded expression.
However, for Ruin, it was a very serious matter.
‘Do I have to meet the Emperor too!’
The Hero’s attention alone was killing him, but if the Emperor was added too, he’d die!
Of course, he was pissed off for other reasons too.
‘Deliberately attacking a student’s weakness.’
That was crossing the line.
But Heizen sneered.
“What meaning does the title ‘student’ have in a combat situation? Her Imperial Highness attacked first.”
“Ah.”
Ruin lifted his chin as if incredulous.
“Combat situation? Are you, a professor, really calling this a real combat situation against a student?”
At the same time, Ruin extended his magic wand. Yes, to subdue Heizen—
But at that moment, everyone around held their breath. The Imperial Princess, the students, even the faculty watching from afar. Everyone stared at the scene with disbelieving eyes.
Click.
Because Ruin had decisively sheathed his magic wand. Like a declaration that magic would no longer be needed. It was enough to make people stir.
“…Why put away your weapon in the middle of combat? Are you insane?”
However, Ruin let out a scoff.
Magic wand in combat? What a joke.
He wasn’t originally a mage. During Callon’s time, he had played along with the Head Professor test, but now?
Ruin’s fist slowly rose and—
“I’m warning you in advance, don’t think about fighting like it’s from a textbook. You’ll really die if you do.”
“!”
…He vanished.
“!”
Heizen hastily deployed a barrier, but it was already too late.
Thwack!
“Guk!”
The moment Ruin’s knee drove into Heizen’s abdomen, everyone realized. This wasn’t a lesson, demonstration, or experiment.
“Gueup—!”
Heizen’s breath caught at his throat. Before he knew it, Ruin’s knee was buried deep in his abdomen.
A single impact pressing both lungs and stomach simultaneously. Heizen reflexively swung his arms, but even that was after they were firmly caught in Ruin’s grip.
In an instant, Heizen’s arm was twisted.
Crack crack crack—!
The brutal sound of joints being twisted. It was like the sound of hammers in a slaughterhouse.
“Ahhh!”
Heizen instinctively staggered backward, but creating distance now was meaningless.
Ruin’s shadow disappeared and—
Thud!
Immediately struck the back of his knee. Heizen’s leg instantly buckled as he dropped to his knees on the floor.
“Gueuk…!”
Before he could completely collapse, this time an elbow shot out from behind. A precise 45-degree angle strike aimed at the back of his head.
Thong!
Heizen’s head swayed from the impact as if half-turned, losing his balance and crawling on the floor.
However, Ruin approached slowly with an expression that said he ‘hadn’t even started yet.’ Heizen raised his head.
“…This bastard, how dare you…”
Before he could even lift his head, Ruin’s fist came crashing down first.
Crack!
The impact sound rang through his brain. Two of Heizen’s front teeth flew through the air, and blood flowed down his chin.
Heizen raised his head while supporting himself on the floor.
“…You, you… are you craz—”
His mouth trembled, and his eyes, mixed with shock, rage, and humiliation, glared at Ruin.
However, Ruin coldly raised his fist again and said quietly.
“Stand up straight.”
“…What?”
“The more someone is untouchable by students, the more properly they should take their beating.”
At those words, it was the students who swallowed their breath.
“Do you know how many students died because of you, and how many children even had their names erased?”
Heizen couldn’t say anything. He just gasped for breath while clutching his broken tooth area.
Ruin’s eyes looking at him were colder than anyone else’s.
“Even if you ran away, you should have at least thought about going back to rescue them. But instead, you even lied saying they ‘crossed over to Pride’… Didn’t you kill the surviving students as well as the dead students twice over?”
Silence flowed. Some students covered their mouths, and some hung their heads low. No one defended Heizen.
Heizen laughed as if sobbing.
“…So? So you think you’re some kind of executor of justice?”
At that moment, Ruin’s eyes twisted. It wasn’t laughter or anger, but disgust.
“Justice?”
His foot struck Heizen’s abdomen squarely.
Thud!
As if air was escaping from his chest, Heizen bent over once more to the brink of unconsciousness.
“This isn’t justice, it’s just collecting on deferred responsibility.”
When those eyes gleamed murderously-
“Stop!”
“What the hell are you doing!”
The ground shook. Running through the red dust were Kalon and Professor Charlie.
Charlie shouted in horror.
“Ruins! What are you doing!”
Do you really want to get punished for this?
However, Ruin coldly stepped back.
“It’s already over.”
Heizen crawled on the floor and let out dry coughs.
“…Haa, haa… This crazy bastard…”
Then Charlie grabbed Ruin and said a word.
“Calm down! You, if you do this, you really can’t avoid disciplinary action!”
“Disciplinary action? Why? I didn’t kill him, so isn’t that fine?”
“What, man?!”
Students murmured from behind.
“Professor…!”
“Professor Ruins, they said he’s a Battle Mage, he really fights well… What kind of martial arts is that?”
“Is that possible without even using magic?”
The Imperial Princess looked at Ruin quietly with surprise from behind. She had thought he was a dangerous person, but now he… saved her, right? He got angry for us, right?
Soon the Principal, Hero, and Head Professors also came running after hearing the news.
“Professor Ruins, what is this!”
“What on earth are you doing!”
To this, Ruin said emotionlessly.
“Since it’s also the Head Professor’s duty to guide other professors. I was faithfully performing my role.”
“…!”
…He said he was giving guidance? When the person became a bloody mess?
When the Hero appeared, Heizen shouted as if it was perfect timing. No matter what, the Hero had no choice but to be on his side. Because the Emperor had his weakness!
“He’s a crazy bastard who beats up colleagues. Fire him immediately!”
However, the Hero muttered coldly.
“While you’re at it, you should have broken his legs too…”
…What, man?!
“Oops~ that inner voice should stop.”
The Hero clapped as if he had never said such a thing.
“Now, first, you two, isolation~”
Heizen was dumbfounded.
“Wait! The isolation should be for that guy- why am I included?!”
At that moment, the Hero leaned close to Heizen’s ear and muttered coldly.
“…Covering for you ends here. I told you that after this, it’s personal responsibility, didn’t I?”
Heizen’s face hardened.
But faster than that were the students.
“Chairman! Why was Professor Heizen at Black Moon? Please answer us!”
“He was hiding in the dormitory for a year?!”
Heizen finally shouted as if giving up on everything.
“Fine, I’ve endured as much as I can!”
He who once bore responsibility for all students as Head Professor looked at the students and said.
“I never gave up on the truth of the incident from a year ago! It was all to track Fire Butterfly! I infiltrated as the Blackmoon Dormitory Supervisor!”
Instantly, murmurs arose among the students.
“Really?”
The students stirred restlessly.
Still, Heizen had once been the Head Professor who managed all students for a long time. In comparison, Ruin had only been teaching for barely two months.
Ruin chuckled softly.
“Then did you succeed in tracking?”
Heizen’s pupils shook. And at the end of that trembling, he shouted.
“Yes! You are Fire Butterfly!”
Silence followed those words.
The expressions of Professor Charlie and Professor Kalon were practically works of art.
‘…That’s a trick you tried once before and got burned, you bastard.’
Charlie held his head in his hands, and Kalon simply closed his eyes.
Heizen became bewildered by such reactions.
“…Why is no one reacting!”
This time the professors also closed their eyes.
There was already a professor who had been dragged away as a spy after using that method…
At that reaction, Heizen shouted.
“If you use my truth serum, it will be revealed!”
This time the Hero’s expression changed. His eyes slowly grew cold, and his fingers rubbed his brow.
…I’ve tried that before too. Something similar… like Soul Communication.
“…Truth serum, you say.”
At those words filled with distrust, Heizen narrowed his brow.
“This is different from ordinary truth serum! It’s a self-made product with effects hundreds of times more powerful.”
At those words, Ruin fell into thought for a moment.
‘Come to think of it, that’s right.’
‘The real Ruins Wayne’.
That guy had drunk this truth serum and said something. So he was branded as Fire Butterfly and died.
I don’t know exactly what he said to be branded as Fire Butterfly and killed, but…
“Since you insist so much, I’ll drink it and prove myself.”
“!”
Ruin extended his hand.
Heizen was momentarily flustered, but soon threw the bottle to Ruin.
“…Whatever you’re trying to hide, everything will be revealed.”
Ruin lightly shook the transparent bottle.
At this, Ginseng Superior was alarmed.
「…Is it okay to drink truth serum?!」
‘Don’t worry. The first thing spies are educated about is truth serum training.’
Finally, with a drop, the small liquid fell onto his tongue tip, and Ruin swallowed it nonchalantly. At that moment, everyone’s gaze focused on him.
Ruin closed his eyes.
“…”
A few seconds of silence.
And slowly, he opened his eyes.
The Hero and everyone else watched Ruin with surprised eyes.
Heizen shouted.
“What is your identity! What are you hiding?”
Ruin’s answer that followed was enough to shock everyone.
